UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE.

ICE-CREAM-GONE HOLDER.

Application filed November 12, 1925. Serial No. 68,698.

My invention relates to ice cream cone holders, and more particularly to holders intended for use when filling and serving the cones.

The object of my invention is to devise a holder wherein the cones are firmly held and easily taken out.

A further object of my invention is to render the serving of cones more sanitary and expeditious.

In the accompanying drawings Figure 1 is a perspective view of the holder;

Figure 2 is a view of t-heholder with cones therein;

Figure 3 is a top View of a rack having five cone-holding rings.

The rack is composed exclusively of wire and has a top portion forming a ring 4 2 which may be oval as shown in Figure 1 or circular as shown in Figure 3. Inside the main ring a plurality of smaller rings 5 are connected to the main ring 4; either by soldering or brazing at 6. Rings 5 are also 95 interconnected as at 7 A base 8 of the same configuration as the outer ring at but of larger dimension is provided with standards 9 forming support for the ring t and connected to the same at 10. These standards,

#50 as shown are brazed or soldered to the lower and upper rings.

In Figure .1 a holder of four rings is shown. In Figure 3 five are shown but the number of rings may be increased or reduced according to the size of the rack required.

The object of having the base ring 8 of a larger dimension than the upper ring is to cause the standards to slant outwards and permit the packing of a number of 40 holders by inserting one into another.

The holder shown is one form well adapted for the purpose but it will be understood that changes in the shape and form may be made or else the outer upper ring may be dispensed with and the standards 9 connected to the cone holding rings directly without departing from the spirit of the invention as covered by the following claims:

1. In a cone holder of the class described, a plurality of cone holding rings interconnected, a ring forming a base of larger dimension than the outer contour of the coneholding rings, and standards connected to the base ring and to the cone holding rings.

2. In a cone holder of the class described,

a plurality of cone holding rings interconnected, an outer ring encircling said coneholding rings and connected to the outer 0 periphery of said rings, a ring forming a base of larger dimension than the outer ring, standards connected to said base ring and said outer ring so as to form a conical cone stand capable of being inserted in one another for packing purposes.

In testimony of the foregoing, I have hereto affixedmy signature, this 10th day of November, 1925, at the City of Ottawa, Canada.
